Re: Coupling Radio antennae
You could connect both antennas with a hybrid splitter but there would be > 3dB loss; which might be OK. A better way is to use a 12 VDC BNC relay, like this one BNC relay, controlled with a switch

Harley,
the diagonal numbers make such a big difference for the better. Somehow, makes the effect more modern. Interesting how significant graphics design can be.

Re: uMonitor and Plasma III Tach Pulse
This is for the archives for those of us Neanderthals still using the uMonitor. After connecting the Plasma III tach output signal directly to the uMonitor tach input, I did some testing. I removed

Re: COZY: picking up from paint - what to look for?
The simple solution:?? Vinyl boat numbers.?? I generally get 8 to 10 years before I lose one.?? Some have been stuck on for over 25 years.?? I prefer the simple black block numbers available

Re: Coupling Radio antennae
After looking at the diplexors and triplexors, looks like these all have bandpass filters for two or more different bands, so probably is not a viable option for two VHF antennas using

Re: Coupling Radio antennae
Congrats on getting back in the air Marc!
A "diplexor" might work for you (one radio/two antennas). Might check with them to be sure you get the type of connectors you want

Re: Coupling Radio antennae
Marc, how much of the winglet was taken off and how difficult was it to control the plane. If this story was put out on the forum, I somehow missed it. Glad things turned out ok for you.

Coupling Radio antennae
Since I had my mid-air, in which I lost my left winglet and associated radio antenna, I want to avoid the possible loss of radio contact, if this ever (very unlikely) happens again. It was fortunate

Re: COZY: picking up from paint - what to look for?
Have to stick in my two cents again.
I did my graphics in Cadd (Visual Cadd) where I could do them "full size". I printed them at home on paper and fitted them to the plane to be sure

How did the A&P balance the controls? You speaking of checking the weights on the control surfaces after paint?

Where’s the like button? Oh, wrong platform, anyway, ask for the “paint mask” adhesive when doing it this way. Sticks just enough to seal the edge, peels off easy .

Re: COZY: picking up from paint - what to look for?
Who can afford th hire a paint company?
If you do your own painting, which I did,
there is a caution.
The original owners/builders had put
"Spraylat" on the canopy to protect it
from scratches.

Re: COZY: picking up from paint - what to look for?
I used a paint mask for all my lettering and numbers. The local sign shop made mine. You put it on and peel off the top layer. Sand and paint, then pull off the rest. Worked perfect and is very easy
